The court is so big people would be safer sitting there than lining up to leave the arena. 60-90 minutes extra pending on the 5th set wouldn't make any difference for safety IMO.
Just a total clown show... they had qualies in Dubai, then mices in hotels and now kicking fans out in the middle of the match. Australia is a total mess in handling this pandemic
No politician in this country cares about biathlon, we wouldn't get the World Cup even if Civic Platform was in charge & Trzaskowski was the President either
We're good enough to host European Champs but not good enough to beat Nove Mesto just for one World Cup date. With Russian venues out, this is the time to beat Riaubichi for the spot but sadly everyone only cares about ski jumping during the winter. Bobsleigh has more or less died and cross country hangs on because Justyna Kowalczyk decided to coach Monika Skinder by herself. I'm not even gonna talk about alpine skiing because the Nosal hill has been abandoned for like 25 years now?
Swiatek beats Ferro, sets up Halep in R4.
Btw, Australia's hard lockdown isn't working much, they keep reviving it and it doesn't help the cause at all. If Victoria struggles so badly with it then it shows how better Europe is handling it right now.
If NA races were a fixture every season then IBU would have placed them at a fixed slot (late November/early December most likely). But since they are present like once every 4-5 years it's difficult to accomodate them that way.
Hochfilzen basically has to be a December venue due to Kitzbuehel downhill craze in January. January is reserved for back-to-back German venues, Ostersund has to be December since Are is usually a frequent FIS fixture in either January or February or maybe World Cup finals in March (hence why Ostersund in March is such a stretch). Kontiolahti is definitely the most flexible venue, it's cold enough there to host events in late November or mid March.
Sadly Nove Mesto keeps Duszniki out of the World Cup running IMO. Marketa Davidova has a bigger appeal than any of our girls and the Czech men are obviously better than ours too.

You'd be disappointed to know 2020 Top 10 in Poland. 9x ski jumping and PSG vs Bayern Champions League final
Bischofshofen Four Hill finale was the highest watched with over 5.1 million people.
That's still more than 'Home Alone' on Christmas Eve though which "only" had 4.3 million
That didn't last long... NBA mandated all teams play national anthem before games and Cuban quickly crawled back to his cave

Then blame iHeart radio, not me. Besides, nobody in USA even thinks of joking about skin color these days especially when it comes to black people. You do realize BLM still dictates how the liberal mainstream goes?
I'm following NFL so I stumbled across this by chance. I don't actively search the BLM propaganda whatsoever!
The liberals in this thread have gone awfully quiet ever since Biden became President so I might just post something myself.
